Not even sure if there has been an FT even on the African continent.

This would provide an opportunity for as many FlyerTalk members and InsideFlyer subscribers around the world to meet Randy Petersen as possible. It could even be combined with a book signing tour.

Well, frequent flyer programs will be 25 years old on May 1 (American, United and then TWA on May 18th) and it will provide a great background for something like this. Let me see what i can come up with and let's see what other opportunities some up in the next few months. I like the online experience but very much prefer the live and in person.
Hmmmmmmmmmm ... and May is also the date set for OzFest Three in oz .... Hmmmmmmmm

Excellent idea! I had the privilege of meeting Randy at Catman Do Trois in March 2001 in NYC, though I'm sure he doesn't remember me. (Since he was single at the time, perhaps he remembers the person I was with. ) I hope what eventually comes down fits into my schedule.

I think it's a great idea, he can start at the ELP DO in February
And you might ask, why El Paso, well why not, after all, it's the birthplace of Continental Airlines

Good timing in Colorado might be after the ski season and before summer. We could probably get a very nice hotel/resort at great room rates.
